America, free-market capitalism, western traditions and culture, Christianity and Judaism, and individual freedom hang in the balance and the survival of the ‘Great American Experiment’ will determine the outcome. And what everyone needs to understand and accept is that the American people are at least partially at fault, due to apathy, laziness, and allowing themselves to fall victim to a process of dumbing down, indoctrination, political correctness and manipulation, which let things get to this point. And they, “we the people”, need to be willing to change, demand change from government, the media and public education and then change quickly if we want to save this country and our culture, our ideals and the freedoms that most of us say we hold dear.

America is an experiment. From the time of its first white settlement, America has been a place where people came to experiment with doing things differently. It’s been a place to gamble, to see if you could be one of the lucky ones who became landowners or lawyers or independent merchants. You gambled on the weather, politics, your own skills, and your own ability to commit to the experiment of living in America, and being an American.

During the 18th century, the experiment deepened, as Americans began to speculate that they could form the first democratic nation in modern times. Intense experimentation went on from the 1760s to 1787, as Americans adapted and invented forms of government fit for the scope of their needs, the gaping hole of their inexperience, and the high and intense expectations for their future.

On and on went the experiment: could we create a strong and stable centralized government? Could we grow without destabilizing? Could we solve the problem of slavery? Could we truly create a melting pot in which to forge Americans out of peoples of all nations? Could we give women the vote? Could we accept Jewish people as true Americans? Could we desegregate? Could we… the average man rule himself? See: Notes From Dr. Charles Krauthammer’s Speech to the Center for the American Experiment.

The Founding Fathers thought we could rules ourselves as long as we were educated and engaged, which is why Thomas Jefferson and others felt so strongly about public education… guaranteeing that everyone could be educated and participate in a meaningful way. And they gave us the Bill of Rights, a Republic and then the U.S. Constitution as a framework.

Remember John Adams’ [Blu-ray] famous line when he was asked after the Constitutional Convention what type of government the Founders had given the American people, “A republic” he responded, “if you can keep it!?!” We have fallen so far from educating our children in history, civics and current events and from remaining engaged and vigilant ourselves that many Americans today do not even know that The United States of America is a republic and not a democracy. Most of our Senators and Congressmen don’t/can’t even read the bills, not just the ObamaCare bill, before voting on them.

And it is exactly those individual freedoms and the notion that the average man can rule himself within the framework of the Constitution that the ruling elite and the money changers, or International bankers, fear and always have. The fight between the ruling elite and the common man with new found hope and rights began on day one. It began with people like Alexander Hamilton who had George Washington’s ear and wanted a central bank. And fear is exactly what causes them to go after anyone or any group that appeals to ‘we the people’. The facts and the truth matter little!

Let us not forget that Progressivism = Socialism = Fascism = Communism = Marxism… They are all the same and both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are disciples of Progressivism, Saul Alinsky, Cloward and Piven and George Soros at the heart of a Shadow Party that effectively use a complicit media, political correctness, a low informed and indoctrinated populace and tactics like community organizing to promote their efforts and forward their cause. Hillary Clinton has said more than once… “I like to call myself a progressive”, including on the 2008 campaign trail. And gun control is at the center of their plan(s). Taking away people’s guns and controlling their healthcare is at the heart of all these ideologies and the dictators and regimes that they produce. Be sure to checkout: Adolf Hitler-Progressive Pioneer.

In the interest of fairness and as a debt to history, I think it’s important that we take a minute to give due credit to one of the greatest progressives in history, someone who undoubtedly should be an inspiration and influence to all progressives – former German leader Adolf Hitler, who against strong odds rose to power and fundamentally changed Germany and for a while, the world.

Like our president, Adolf Hitler came from humble beginnings…

And because of a combination of the dumbing down of America which includes many factors, the unchecked growth of Progressivism, political correctness, and the manipulation of the public through media and indoctrination we are now fighting battles against a global ruling class which includes people like George Soros and groups like the Bilderbergers, Trilateralists, and the CFR looking to take us to a New World Order, often referred to as the New Economic World Order, as well as ideological movements including Progressivism, Communism and the goal of an Islamic Global Caliphate; all of which hate the American (western) way of life, the notion of unlimited opportunities, self-rule for the common man, and the Great American Experiment concept that as long as it survives gives hope to the entire world.

Americans who want to end the experiment are few, but boisterous and vocal. They clamor for the national microphone yet work in the shadows at the same time. Barack Hussein Obama is such an American, and his election is proof that the lab is still open, and that America in general will always be at the drawing board, expanding its concepts of liberty, justice and equality until we finally reassert and fulfill the founding principles that created this nation so long ago.

The groups, factions and members of the ruling elite are numerous, patient and have a huge head start on winning the war against freedom; enhanced by the 24-hour digital/cyber world which they control, the low informed populace fed by the complicit liberal media and the ever-growing masses who have been enticed by the Nanny State concept. But like our Founding Fathers during the revolutionary war, nobody would have bet on a rag tag army with few supplies and little training beating the greatest military machine and Empire in history, the army and navy of Great Britain. It only takes a dedicated group of 3 to 5% of the population to create change, and Americans who know that there is no America without the experiment will keep fighting and will ultimately persevere or die trying.

Our battle is getting America to wake-up and to educate themselves… and to do it quickly, for it is almost too late!! Each of us needs to educate ourselves; get-involved; get our kids and grandkids away from the video games, TV and texting; and share everything we learn with as many people as we can. For another election cycle where the mis, under and low-informed voters vote based on what they heard or didn’t hear on NBC, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, CNN or PBS, from groups like AARP, or based on what a friend tells them they heard on one of those networks will guarantee the demise of the greatest country and greatest opportunity for the common man that ever was. The price of freedom is eteranal vigilance by an engaged and educated populace… yet America has become the land of the mis, under and low-informed voter. Can we turn the tide in time?

I am a babyboomer and empty nester who savors every moment of my past and believes that it is the responsibility of each of us in my generation and Americans in general to make sure that America is as good or even a better place for future generations as it was for us. So far... we haven't done very well!!

At age 62 I find myself fighting inoperable uterine Cancer and thanks to the man upstairs and the prayers from so many people including many of my readers from AskMarion and JustOneMorePet... I'm beating it.
After losing our business because of the economy and factors related to the re-election of President Obama in 2012 followed by 16-mos of job hunting, my architect-trained husband is working as a trucker and has only been home approximately 5-days a month since I was diagnosed, which has made everything more difficult and often lonely... plus funds are tight. Our family medical deductible is 12K per year for two of us; thank you ObamaCare.
But thanks to donations from so many of you, we are making ends meet as I go through treatment while taking care of my father-in-law who is suffering from late stage Alzheimer's and my mother-in-law who suffers from RA and onset dementia as well as hearing loss, for which there are no caretaker funds,
as I continue the fight here online to inform and help restore our amazing country.
And finally I need to thank a core group of family, friends, and readers... all at a distance, who check in with me regularly. Plus, I must thank my furkids who have not left my side through this fight. You can see them at JustOneMorePet.
